Fascinating stats here about how #QPR Richard Kone is doing compared to ex-Ranger Charlie Kelman at #CAFC.

We got a deal and a half on that one.

A meme featuring a distracted boyfriend looking back at another woman while his girlfriend looks annoyed. The labels include "SHINY SHINY TECHNOLOGY" on the woman he is looking at, "LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT" on the boyfriend, and "EVIDENCE BASED PRACTICE" on the girlfriend.

Delighted to announce this today.

A promotional poster for the Podcast Learning Festival 2026. The background shows a blurry image of several pairs of headphones with microphones hanging in a row. Bold, bright pink and neon yellow text overlays the image. The text reads: "The Podcast Learning Festival 2026" in pink, and "Where learning speaks volumes" in yellow. Smaller text in the bottom left corner gives the date as "26th February 2026" and the location as "Central London." A pink button at the bottom left says "Register now."

If you have to say these words, something has happened WAY before now to create this situation.
A close-up image of a man speaking directly to the camera, with subtitles at the bottom of the image. which say: ..."so they're unable to stop murdering children" A TikTok logo is visible in the bottom right corner.

April 25th today
Scene from Miss Congeniality where a contestant is asked to describe their perfect date. Their response is April 25th because it's not too hot, not tool cold, and all you need is a light jacket.

I remember about 18 months ago when AI couldn't do fingers properly and thinking how much they had to do before images became vaguely acceptable.

I didn't expect it to be this quick.

Hmmm
England and Wales Cricket Board @ECB_cricket Ahead of International Women's Day, we asked four former and current England Women's cricketers to discuss how much the game has changed and to reflect on their own journey in the sport. England captain Heather Knight has criticised the disparity between men's and women's salaries in The Hundred. The gap in pay between the top men's and women's players has widened from £75,000 to £135,000 for this year's competition. Top level men's players will see their pay increase by 60% to £200,000, while leading women's salaries are rising 30% to £65,000, as part of an overall 25% rise across all salary bands. In the lowest-earning category, men will be paid £31,000, up from £30,000 in 2024, while women will earn £10,000, up from £8,000.
